A spokesperson for former President Bill Clinton has called for full transparency from the Department of Justice regarding the Epstein files, urging the release of all materials and images of Clinton related to the case. The call for transparency stems from the ongoing release of Epstein files, which has intensified public scrutiny and led to political debate. The spokesperson’s statement directly challenges the Trump administration’s handling of disclosures, alleging that the releases appear selective, and urging compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which mandates declassification and publication of federal records related to Epstein and his network. The DOJ has stated that additional files are slated for incremental release, while emphasizing continued protection for victim identities.
